Abstract

ABSTRACT In 1991, India embarked on economic reform. This research asked if post-reform growth in the two newly formed states of Undivided Andhra Pradesh was or was not pro-poor. In both states, real monthly per capita expenditure increased, but poverty declined faster in 2004–05 to 2011–12 than in 1993–94 to 2004–05. Even though Telangana’s economic growth was lower than that of Andhra Pradesh, its growth elasticity of poverty was high enough to cause a more rapid decline in poverty. In the second period, growth in both states was found to be pro-poor because of high-growth elasticities of poverty and lower income inequality.

改革后时期贫困增长弹性与扶贫增长:两个印度邦的故事
摘要1991年,印度开始了经济改革。这项研究询问了两个新成立的安得拉邦改革后的增长是否有利于穷人。在这两个州,实际月人均支出都有所增加,但2004-2005年至2011-2012年贫困率下降的速度快于1993-94年至2004-05年。尽管特伦甘纳的经济增长率低于安得拉邦,但其贫困增长弹性高到足以导致贫困率更快下降。在第二个时期,由于贫困的高增长弹性和较低的收入不平等,这两个州的增长都是有利于穷人的。
